Process optimization for production of biodiesel from croton oil using two-stage process
(University of Nairobi, 2014)
Croton oil was extracted from dry seeds by a mechanical pressing machine then filtered to remove
solid impurities. Biodiesel was prepared from the oil through a two-stage process in a biodiesel reactor. The
optimum ...
The biology and control of the greater wax moth, galleria mellonella
(UoN, 2017)
The greater wax moth, Galleria mellonella Linnaeus, is a ubiquitous pest of the honeybee, Apis mellifera Linnaeus, and Apis cerana Fabricius. The greater wax moth larvae burrow into the edge of unsealed cells with pollen, ...
The food and beverage occurrence of furfuryl alcohol and myrcene—two emerging potential human carcinogens?
(University of Nairobi, 2017)
For decades, compounds present in foods and beverages have been implicated in the etiology of human cancers. The World Health Organization (WHO) International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) continues to classify such ...
A robust liquid chromatographic method for confirmation of drug stability of azithromycin in bulk samples, tablets and suspensions
(University of Nairobi, 2017)
A simple, isocratic and robust RP-HPLC method for the analysis of azithromycin was developed, validated and applied for the analysis of bulk samples, tablets and suspensions. The optimum chromatographic conditions for ...
